Constructed in 1889, the physical plant of the facility consists of 30 buildings set within a perimeter fence that includes five general population living units and a secured unit. The facility’s licensed bed space capacity is 88. Each general population living unit can house 16-24 youth and the secured unit can house 30 youth.
